10 Things Women find unattractive

Come on ladies, now is your chance to post your 2 cents!

#1 unattractive thing men do - COMBOVERS! Look you're going bald and we can clearly see you're going bald. Really, just let it happen instead of doing that nasty ass combover that isn't fooling any of us that there is a baldspot underneath.

Oh and #1 worst combover of all time....



If you're going bald do it with pride. Better yet just shave it all off. But get rid of those nasty ass combovers

Women flock to a dude with an outsized issue. I won't judge them and say catty shit like "but they're women with poor self images" or "but most of these women have implants and unnaturally colored spray-on tans." Love is never wrong. But that said, being a self-absorbed, overprimped fop can in fact be a winning formula with the ladies.

Which for some women make it helps them compensate for the man's douchebaggery.

I mean do you think Donald Trump could have had 3 hot wifes if he was the stockroom supervisor at your local Wal-mart?

I have dated a rich douche bag back when I was 23. It lasted for about 6 months until I realized he really was a douchebag and decided to not date him anymore. Didn't help that on the last date we had I had to drive him to some trailerpark outside of Hershey so he could buy his coke. That pretty much was a big no-no for me.

Wed Dec 21, 2011, 03:28 PM
Dec 2011

"I'm not good looking but I have a ton of money" (his appeal to the women in the audience).

Used to have a friend named Neil who was a decent enough guy. Not handsome, though, and he had a chronic case of adult acne that required ongoing treatment from a dermatologist. He owned a boat, and also had a t-shirt with the inscription "Hi, my name is Neil, and I have a boat."

Neil spent most of his time on that boat by himself. Reminded me of an old Richard Brautigan poem that went something like "She wants the things from men that she can't have because she's not 10% prettier."

So money or looks...you need some of each. If you are...as my dad used to say..."homely as a carload of assholes," you need a TON of money. And if you are living from paycheck to paycheck, you need to have the looks (or be a "bad boy" asshole, I guess. I've known more than one woman who went with guys who had no money...they had to pay for everything...and ultimately, the guys would ALWAYS be screwing someone else on the side).

I have never gone out with a guy who had a ton of money or been Mr. Super Good Looks. They have always been 'average' -- like me.


Is it most guy's opinion that women only want $$$ and/or good looks? It's sad if that is what they think. But I suppose
maybe those guys only try to date really shallow women.

So for all I know that could be Rush Limbaugh.

But if it's Geddy Lee, he's one of those guys who got better looking as he got older. Roger Waters is like that too. Both Waters and Lee were kinda hideous looking freaks back in the 70s. But today - they are both good looking men!

BUT...

My thread was asking women to post what they think is unattractive in men. Last time I checked you were not a woman but then again i could be wrong.

You know, in response to attempts at intimate conversation, or requests to do anything they don't want to do or are unfamiliar with, or to pay real attention to what makes a woman aroused or happy.

I KNOW it's not everybody, fellas. Everybody doesn't have a combover either. But if you'd just jump in there without all the second guessing we'd like it sometimes and not sometimes and we could have a conversation about it and relax around one another more...just as soon as we get over our part of the problem. But somebody's gotta do it.

Wed Dec 21, 2011, 10:49 PM
Dec 2011

The girl clearly messed up. But it wasn't with our food or anything. We had just asked if she would divide the bill 5 ways between us (some had credit cards and others had cash). If we only paid what she charged us she would have still owed $15.

I volunteered to fix the mistake. I like the restaurant and I'm an ex waitress - so I wanted to make things right. I told the others to sign the bill but to tip based on $10 since that is what each of us technically owed.

One guy felt that because she screwed up the check she should suffer the loss. It annoyed me that he said that. I mean I know I'm a pretty smart person and I have messed up on checks. I only wish people were honest to me when I made a mistake. I treated the waitress the same way I would want to be treated.

He didn't leave her a very good type but I left extra to cover him.
